Who is the idiot who thought it was clever to make the other quest giver vanish when you accept this, so you can't take their quest any more?
That is every comment on this page.

Description
It's good to have new allies here. Together, we have much better chances of protecting this tower. The nerubians have overwhelmed us. If we're going to have any chance against them, we need to destroy the burrows they're using to come under the Wall. If you can handle that, we will survey the field from the top of the wall and meet you there.
Where to go
Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Where the Light Touches
Many in Hallowfall will call you "outsider". I would call you friend. I would also ask for your help, if you are no stranger to combat. Desperate times forge strong friendships. General Steelstrike ordered the army to fall back from the nerubian onslaught.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Igniting Hope
One dawntower has fallen, but a faint glimmer of hope remains with the smaller keyflame atop the wall. The shattered remnants needed to sustain that light were taken by the nerubians. Gather the remnants from nerubians you slay, and help ignite a beacon of hope!
